Niel Schueller, N7944 McCloud Dr., Gleason, WI 54435. Thank you.
At the January 22, 2026 meeting for the member clubs, we awarded several donations to youth programs supported by several clubs. One of the members suggested that we might want to consider raising the annual fee to $30 to allow us to provide additional support. The fees are currently used only for 2 purposes. The first is to pay the costs for the calendar, such as hosting fees, software and domain registration, etc. All work for editing the site and record keeping is done on a volunteer basis. A small reserve is held for unexpected costs. The remaining funds are distributed to youth and new shooter programs. We are looking for feedback from the member clubs regarding a possible cost increase for the 2027 calendar. Fees were $10 prior to 2017 and increased to $20 in 2017. I WILL BE SWITCHING TO A DIFFERENT HOSTING SERVICE AND, AS A RESULT, THE SITE MAY BE DOWN FOR A SHORT TIME DURING THE WEEK OF FEBRUARY 8. YOU MAY WISH TO PRINT A COPY OF THE PDF CALENDAR AS A BACKUP FOR WHILE THE SITE IS DOWN. THANK YOU. |

News and AnnouncementFacebook Page with the same name as this site I was made aware of a Facebook Page with exactly the same name as this website. Please note that the 2 sites are under separate control, so if you want to post shoot information on EastWisconsinShotgunSports.org, please be sure to send the information to the email listed on this site. I have no access to the Facebook messages sent to the Facebook page created in 2015. This website was created in 2003.
2025 Site Updates I have been receiving information for the 2025 shooting season. If you need to add shoots to the calendar, please contact me. The 2025 annual meeting of the member clubs was held at the Campbellsport Sportsman's Club on Jan 23, 2025 at 7:00 pm. There were 2 nominations for donations. We were able to give each organization $500.00. Recipients were Watertown Conservation Club and Maribel Sportsman's Club Youth Trap League. Congratulations to the recipients. Our mission is to help provide funds to organizations that support youth shooting or to support other charitable shooting organizations. I appreciate the club representatives who attended the meeting despite the cold weather. Thank you. Young Hunters Many of us are hunters as well as trap shooters. When should we start taking our children or grandchildren along with us? Check out the links page for an interesting article under Miscellaneous Links titled : Young Hunters: When to get children started. Colleges with Trap and Skeet Programs If you enjoy trap or skeet shooting, are in high school, and you're planning to attend college, you might want to consider schools that have strong trap and skeet programs. Attached is a list that could help get you connected with a college that can provide the major you are looking for and competitive shotgun shooting opportunities. Occasional Site Outages I recently received a note through the mail that people were unable to access the site. I will continue to try to monitor the site for this issue. If anyone notes that the site is down in the future, please email me at webmaster@eastwisconsinshotgunsports.org or call my cell at 920-948-1694. Thank you. Niel
